Meet Pugsley Addams

Pugsley Addams is the son of Morticia and Gomez Addams and the brother of Wednesday Addams. Pugsley is a little who deep down just wants to be tortured by Wednesday. He fears that they will no longer get to share this interesting form of bonding now that Lucas, Wednesday’s boyfriend, is around. 

“He’s funny and still has a sense of childlike wonder and innocence about him,” AJ Huber said.

He will be played by senior AJ Huber and freshman Caden Smith.

This is Huber’s first show at BPHS. Huber also performed in shows and helped with the stage crew at IMS.

“I’ve always loved the Addams Family in all its forms, so I’m super pumped that I get to be a part of that. I’ve always found Pugsley to be really funny, so to be able to play him is so cool,” Huber said.

Huber, along with musical, is on the varsity rifle team, is a member of concert choir, and plays clarinet in the marching band. 

Smith has been in one other show at BPHS. He played Little Jake in “Annie Get Your Gun” when he was in fifth grade. He was also in shows at IMS.

“I really like the Addams Family. I have watched this movie and I just loved it! I felt bad for Pugsley because he was getting excluded and I get to play him now. It’s so exciting,” Smith said when asked about his feelings about playing Pugsley.

In addition to performing in musicals, Smith is in the drumline in the marching band where he plays the bass drum.

Huber and Smith are delighted to be playing Pugsley in the spring.
